Abstract
We propose an improved optical coherence domain polarimetry (OCDP) calibration scheme by using polarization mode crosstalk (PMC). The scheme can be used to calibrate the OCDP system's measurement result about intensity of PMC. The intensity of 1st order PMCs are measured by polarization extinction ratio (PER) meter as the scale to transfer the standard into OCDP system, and the higher order PMCs formed by 1st orders are used to expand the scale. Specifying alignment angle of joint points and analyzer, we successfully use 3rd order PMCs and expand the range of calibration over -100 dB.
